Vanguard supports Grândola and Alcácer do Sal summer festivals and cultural events

Vanguard Properties has joined forces with Grândola and Alcácer do Sal municipal councils in support of the main summer festivals and cultural and social events organised by the two municipalities as part of its strategy to promote the culture and identity of the region where the real estate developer has projects. 

From the 25 to 29 August Grândola Municipal Council is organising the annual August Fair which returns to the town’s exhibitions and fairs park (Parque de Feiras e Exposições) after a two-year break because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Around 100,000 visitors are expected, which makes the event the largest fair on the Alentejo coast. The Horse Festival is among the many attractions which will take place in the riding arena within the compound.  

In turn, Alcácer Municipal Council is organising the first edition of Youth Week, which will run between 7 and 11 September. In a young and energetic environment, the event will bring together music, sport, and street art, among other activities and entertainments in the park Parque Urbano Spot Sound. 

The CEO of Vanguard Properties, José Cardoso Botelho, said: “We want to be a driver for economic and social development in the region which needs its culture and identity promoted through these kinds of initiatives that we are proud to be involved in.

Vanguard Properties support of Youth Week, for example, is just one of a number of initiatives that we’re working on to help root the young population and improve the quality of life locally”.
